In 1959, Mary Ann and John Valley began their home-based catering service. Soon their small family business grew into the full-fledged food service company that is known today as Valley Foodsystems and serves customers throughout America on military bases, wherever natural disasters occur, and a wide array of specialty markets.
In 1995, Valley began serving the Ohio National Guard with an innovative zero-waste A-Rations program. The Pennsylvania National Guard followed, in 1998, as did the Virginia National Guard in 1999. Today, National Guard units as far away as Kansas and California are being served by Valley Foodsystems. As a Class One provider, Valley also supplies meals to the US Army, the US Navy, and other branches of the armed forces.
The company’s capabilities were tested on a giant scale when it was called upon to help feed victims of hurricanes Katrina, Rita and Wilma — and most recently Gustav and Ike — as well as the rescue and restoration workers who converged on the sites. In 2009, Valley introduced shelf-stable meals with a record-setting 2 1/2-year shelf life to better serve disaster response planners.
Today, Valley custom manufactures products from customer specifications and recently introduced a line of frozen Italian wedding soup and pasta e fagioli, marketed under the name “Giovanni’s Gourmet.”
SNACKkits™ were introduced in 2008 to wide acceptance by hosts of large audiences, airline travelers, and outdoor campers.
It’s come to be known as the VALLEY DIFFERENCE … large enough to produce at the level of major contract food service companies, yet responsive enough to offer the flexibility, customization, and uncompromised customer service you expect from a family-owned company.
